SIGHUP/av[0] restart failure

[Lewandowsky, Matt]

 That is what I understand, myself. It tries to respawn itself on SIGHUP,
and if you don't have the full path specified it may not be able to find the
executable.

Try it and see. ;)

P.S. Try Douglas Manton's suggestion for spawning it from SRC. It's another
one of those things done right in AIX, IMHO. (Too bad AIX has other funky
things making it a poor choice for my needs...)

ok, so in my rc.sshd startup script, when I get to the part where I 
actually start sshd, I need to specify its full path?

I've got ...

PATH=/usr/local/sbin: ...

and later ...

sshd

but you are saying that I need to have it start as ...

/usr/local/sbin/sshd

right?

Thanks!
